Some time ago before Christmas the team here at Filmoria came together to present to you our favourite movie soundtracks, culminating in an array of talented composers and classic theme songs, and now a new survey carried out has done just that, with Titanic coming out on top.

James Horner’s simply scintillating soundtrack is a true work of musical genius, and the UK have had their say in agreeing with that notion. The poll of 2,000 people garnered some excellent choices, including the likes of Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings and Jurassic Park, but ultimately the 11-time Oscar winner (which incidentally included Best Score and Best Song) was the overall victor.

You can see the top ten of the poll below.

The nation’s top 10 film soundtracks:

Titanic

Chariots of Fire

Star Wars

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone

The Lord of the Rings Trilogy

The Great Escape

The Magnificent Seven

Back to the Future

Gladiator

Jurassic Park

The research revealed that 20% of those Brits polled will tolerate a film they dislike, if they love the music. Equally, 59% of the nation thinks a bad musical score can completely ruin a film.

A third (33 per cent) of Brits agree that music is their favourite part of a film, with a dramatic score being the nation’s preferred style for almost half (46 per cent).
